Carolyn Sophia Skowron - You are Unbreakable Nov 02, 2024

Show notes

Carolyn Sophia Skowron spent many years silently grappling with depression and anxiety, alongside struggles in school that left her feeling unsuccessful despite her best efforts, numerous tutors, and hours of dedicated study. This sense of struggle and self-doubt was compounded by her mental health challenges, as she often internalized every situation and interaction, amplifying feelings of isolation.
In her sophomore year of high school, Carolyn discovered that she had a learning difference known as Non-verbal Learning Disability. Initially, learning about this “disability” left her feeling alone and uncertain, questioning what was wrong with her. Over time, however, Carolyn grew to see her learning difference not as a limitation but as a unique strength. Today, she embraces it as an integral part of her resilience and her journey.
Carolyn Sophia Skowron is deeply passionate about mental health and suicide prevention. In 2021, she published her first book, Unbreakable, which shares her journey through adversity and how she overcame mental health struggles. Alongside her writing, Carolyn is also a dedicated public speaker, sharing her story with young audiences to offer hope and encouragement. She inspires kids to believe that, like her, they too can overcome challenges and emerge stronger—because they are unbreakable.
